Ok, what's the secret?
 
After 4 years of trying, I just can't grow digitata....easiest SPS ever, and I kill it all. :redface:

Have you tried singing to it? Mine grows well... Stupid kole tang is constantly breaking it though but then I have frags to sell. I have my red digi very low now so it doesn't grow so fast.

We put some in our LPS system and its doing amazing.

It seems to hate conditions that acro's thrive under.

I kill it no matter where I put it in my acro display putting it with Lps sounds like a good idea lower light my issue with digi is it always bleaches

Mine just gets faded, spindley and dies. Maybe they need higher nutrient systems?

I had problems with it until I started dosing Strontium. But then again, it could have just coincided with my tripling the bioload overnight.

I'm famous for changing more than one thing at a time :) I can try both next time I get some digi

one of my favorite corals, and always will be, digi grows like a bad weed and if you keep the alk slightly higher than normal the color really pops.
